Chapter 114: This is the Prince Qin Hanyue early morning hangover soup, and Cheng Jinyan match
Chapter 114
When Scar Man saw Cheng Jinyan make a phone call, he got scared.
He arrogantly said, "Let's see who you can call. Even if you call the King of Hell today, don't think about saving your life."
Cheng Jinyan dialed a number: "Yu Si."
Scar Man was close by and heard Cheng Jinyan call the person on the other end "Yu Si." He was stunned for a moment, finding the name familiar.
He remembered their branch hall leader was called by that name.
"Do you manage things on the Capital Branch Hall side? My people have apprehended someone at the Dihao Bar. Come handle it," Cheng Jinyan said before hanging up.
Scar Man frowned, filled with a sense of foreboding.
He couldn't help but size up Cheng Jinyan, yet no matter how he looked at him, he was just a capable intellectual.
The call was probably a bluff, he thought.
With people lying on the ground and choppers and batons by his feet, Cheng Jinyan looked totally unbothered as he chatted with Qiao Ying.
"I haven't asked, how's college life going?"
Old friends reunited and drinks after drinks, inevitably they talked a lot.
Qiao Ying: "Pretty novel."
Seeing the two able to casually clink glasses and chat though death was upon them, Scar Man's anger rose even more, as did his desire for revenge.
He tightly gripped his chopper, a vicious look in his eyes, thinking he'd cut them into eight pieces and skin them alive later.
Soon, little brothers came over with reinforcements. Brothers from nearby territories came in groups.
In no time at all, the bar was filled with Scar Man's people.
The bartender didn't hide under the counter this time but instead took the bucket and ran off, not even caring about work anymore.
Scar Man: "Kid, ask around about the Triad properly before mixing in the underworld, so you know who you'll die by in the end."
"You're the first to dare provoke our Triad. Seeing you have guts, I'll leave you one whole corpse."
"Everyone, go."
Scar Man was vigorous, but just as his voice fell, another followed.
"Everybody stop!"
Scar Man found the voice very familiar. Then he heard the brothers calling "Brother Fan, Brother Fan" from both sides.
The brothers opened up on both sides to make way.
Scar Man saw the newcomer and was stunned for a moment. "Brother Fan?"
Then he promptly bowed and scraped, "Why are you here?"
Unexpectedly, Brother Fan, who had always treated him well, glared at him with eyes wishing to kill him.
While nervous that Brother Fan now followed obediently behind another man like a little brother, Scar Man found the other person very familiar. Taking a close look and thinking hard, Scar Man's legs went soft and he bowed even lower, even more respectfully than to Brother Fan.
"Hall... Hall Master..."
Scar Man wondered why even the Hall Master got involved in this.
As Scar Man suddenly thought of something, he looked at Cheng Jinyan in horror. But before he could get a good look, a few steps brought Brother Fan's foot to kick him to the ground.
"Bastard, blinding your dog eyes now? Daring to make a move on the Young Master, do you think your life is too long?!" Brother Fan fiercely kicked the Scar Man on the ground, kicking until he spat blood.
Brother Fan wished he could kick the man to death.
After seven or eight kicks, Brother Fan finally stopped.
Then he secretly glanced at Cheng Jinyan at the bar, thinking to himself: this must be the Young Master the Hall Master mentioned.
Brother Fan was extremely nervous internally.
Heaven knew when he'd received the call from their Hall Master saying his men had apprehended the Triad's Young Master, he'd nearly scared himself to death. Luckily nothing happened to him, otherwise his head would've left his neck tonight.
Yu Si hurriedly walked up to Cheng Jinyan and respectfully asked, "Young Master, are you hurt anywhere?"
Qiao Ying said to Cheng Jinyan, "Since when has the venerable Triad become a mob?"
The Triad, as the number one gang, had washed their hands on the surface quite successfully. Scar Man types hadn't been seen in over a decade.
How had things regressed so much?
"My face is thoroughly lost. Fortunately, Ye Si isn't here," Cheng Jinyan said with relief. Otherwise Ye Si would laugh him to death.
Then Cheng Jinyan asked Yu Si, "What's going on with these people?"
Yu Si looked to Brother Fan instead.
Receiving his gaze, Brother Fan promptly walked over and respectfully said, "Brother Yu, these were originally from the Wanlong Gang. They just joined the gang last month and don't understand the rules yet."
Hearing this, Yu Si fiercely slapped Brother Fan.
"Wanlong Gang trash, you even brought them into the gang. Who gave you the guts and authority! If the Young Master had lost a single hair today, you lot would pay with your heads!"
"Brother Yu spare me. Young... Young Master spare me. I won't dare to do it again, I won't dare..." Brother Fan repeatedly begged for mercy.
Yu Si looked to the half-dead Scar Man on the ground and said, "Take him away and cripple his limbs."
"Hall Master have mercy... Hall Master have mercy!" Several little brothers ignored Scar Man's loud cries for mercy and dragged him away.
At this time, the flat-headed man in the crowd had long been scared silly.
Yu Si: "All who participated in making trouble today will be taken away for me to personally deal with."
The once noisy, crowded bar quickly emptied.
Yu Si pleaded guilty: "It's Yu Si's incompetence. Yu Si will accept punishment."
Cheng Jinyan: "Don't let it happen again."
Then, Cheng Jinyan and Qiao Ying left the bar together.
The commotion had been too big and no small number of people heard the news.
In the Qin family study,
"There was a Triad scuffle at the Dihao Bar tonight with quite a scene. My subordinate heard that Miss Qiao seems to have been involved as well."
After reporting work, Qin Yan also told Qin Hanyue about this.
Qin Hanyue immediately looked up. "And what else?"
Qin Yan: "The Triad's... Young Master seems to have been there too."
Sure enough, it was related to Cheng Jinyan again.
The next day,
Early morning,
A black Maybach stopped at the villa door.
Hearing the doorbell, Cheng Jinyan went to open the door.
Both were stunned when the door opened, slightly raising their brows.
Cheng Jinyan felt surprised. "Master Qin?"
Qin Hanyue's expression unchanged. "Lawyer Cheng."
Qin Yan looked at Cheng Jinyan blocking the villa door in house clothes and silently thought: "Dear me."
He quickly looked up at the house number.
Right, it was the place Miss Qiao lived.
Qin Yan worked hard every day and didn't have the spare time like his uncle and nephew gallivanting around the Capital University forums. So he didn't know about the bet between Qiao Ying and Su Qingyu for inviting Cheng Jinyan to teach at Capital University.
Now looking at Cheng Jinyan, Qin Yan was utterly confused. What was this situation?
After the initial shock, Cheng Jinyan politely extended his hand. "I've long admired your name."
Qin Hanyue reached out to shake his hand. "Nice to meet you."
The moment they clasped hands, Cheng Jinyan immediately felt a powerful murderous aura from Qin Hanyue. He involuntarily narrowed his eyes, feeling the intense hostility yet keeping his composure. He exerted force in response as well.
The sound of bone grating upon bone rang out.
Both maintained calm expressions, not a crease on their brows, yet roiling darkly underneath.
Seeing the two suddenly confront and compete, Qin Yan at the side didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Without determining a victor, the two tacitly released hands at the same time.
Cheng Jinyan: "To what do I owe Master Qin's visit?"
Qin Hanyue: "I'm here to see Qiao Ying and bring her hangover soup."
Cheng Jinyan: He's looking for Ying? Since when did she get to know Qin Hanyue? Cheng Jinyan sized the other person up and noticed a watch on his hand.
Suddenly realizing who he was, Cheng Jinyan thought to himself.
A businessman, thirty years old, wearing a watch—so he was that one.
A new friend who turned out to be a businessman, yet was actually Qin Hanyou.
Cheng Jinyan: "She's not drunk. No need to trouble Master Qin. Please leave."
He actually knew she was drunk and still came to deliver hangover soup so early. Could she have taken the initiative to tell him?
That's not like her. And besides, she wasn't drunk either.
His sources were quite accurate indeed.
After speaking, Cheng Jinyan moved to close the door. Qin Hanyue showing up here looking to pick a fight and not having gotten into enough fights last night, Cheng Jinyan was already showing admirable restraint by not outright attacking him.
Unexpectedly, the man outside lifted a hand to block the door.
Qin Hanyue then said, "Whether she is drunk or not will come from her own mouth. What kind of hospitality is this, Lawyer Cheng? And you're a guest here yourself."
Cheng Jinyan looked at him.
Having had one too many last night, his head still ached. Cheng Jinyan was in a bad mood.
The atmosphere instantly grew tense, swords drawn and bows pulled.
After a moment, Cheng Jinyan conceded and smiled quite gentlemanly. "Please come in, Master Qin."
Since he was Ying's friend, he had to give face.
"She's not awake yet. Please have a seat first, Master Qin. Would you like anything to drink?" Cheng Jinyan led him to the sofa.
Turning around, he saw Qin Hanyue heading straight for the stairs, wanting to go upstairs.
"Young Master Qin?" Cheng Jinyan called out to him immediately.
"I'm going to go see her." Qin Hanyue's footsteps did not stop.
Cheng Jinyan opened his mouth, but then let him go.
If you're not afraid to die then go ahead, dare to disturb Blood Shadow's sleep, let's see how many moves you can endure from her.
Cheng Jinyan might as well not sit on the sofa either, he just stood there on the first floor, head tilted back slightly to look up at the second floor.
It was as if he was waiting to see how the person would be thrown down in a bit.
He heard Qin Hanyue knocking on the door, and speaking.
However, after two minutes had passed, there still weren't any sounds of fighting coming from upstairs. Faintly, he even heard the room door open calmly...
What was going on?
